New tvN drama "Secret Forest 2" is about a lonely prosecutor named Hwang Si-mok and ball of fire detective Han Yeo-jin, delving into the secret collusion between the prosecution and sponsors.

Prosecutor Hwang Si-mok's brain lobe, which experiences and recognizes the outside world, was overly developed and sensitive to even the smallest sounds as a child, so he inevitably restrains this part. The result blocked his passage of sympathy with the outside world. Empathizing, loving, being happy and being sad has become so faint for him he can't feel emotions.

The stills show why he can't feel emotion.

However, this has allowed Hwang Si-mok to look at the truth of incidents with an objective and rational eye, not succumbing to any temptation to touch his desire.

As "Secret Forest 2" deals with the confrontation between the prosecution and the police who want independence from investigative rights, Hwang Si-mok, who belongs to the prosecution's organization but is only pursuing the truth with the belief that 'the answer can be found by not being quiet', is a key stem.

"Hwang Si-mok will face a new environment and characters", the production team said. "The key point is what Hwang Si-mok will show in the new "Secret Forest 2" after two years".

"Secret Forest 2" broadcasts next month after "It's Okay to Not Be Okay".
